Do you think that it's bad to add an "Ingnored counter" under user profiles?This will show how many users are ignoring someone ( without showing any names )An user must know that many people doesn't like what they are saying, it's also useful for themselves ... to know that they are probably doing wrong.It won't count Brand new and Newbie groups.

Example as it should be:

HostFatStaffHero MemberPosts: 711Ignored by: 37 users

Then there are 2 options, that will change in some way the results of this modification:1) Available/visible to everyone ( everyone will know that someone is ignored by X users )2) Visible only to ourself ( everyone will know privately that there are X users that are ignoring them )

I don't know. I personally find it hysterical when people brag about putting someone on the ignore list. I could give a rat's ass who listens to whom; seems like content should dictate who you listen to, not other people opinions of the person.

Option 1 becomes a way of judging people. A popularity stat. You apparently think that is a legitimate purpose. I don't. I'm not a fan of reputation systems on forums. They typically get gamed and become completely pointless.

Frankly, I'm against the ignore feature entirely. People should act in a civilized manner or they should be asked to leave. If they are still here, then what they are saying isn't so abhorrent that you can't slide your eyes past it as you continue to the next post. You give people the tools to live in their own little world and it just increases the filter bubble effect.

I put someone on an ignore list and they asked me why in a pm. I think I hurt their feelings. You would think that if I ignore a person that they would not be able to send me a PM.

I think it is a great idea to put a counter.

Introducing constraints to the economy only serves to limit what can be economical.

If we're gonna prattle off related features, though...- Prevent threads created by ignored user from appearing- Don't show the user's existence on a thread at all. As in, when I scroll through a thread, I don't want to see a block of space saying "This user is currently ignored."- Don't show quotes from the ignored person. At most, when someone's quoting someone I'm ignoring, I want to see

I've put a few people on ignore without resorting to even letting them know, it's not worth my time, just like it's not worth my time constantly seeing them posting know what they post annoys me in enough to want to put them on ignore in the first place.

Yes I'm sure it has the potential for abuse, I don't deny, however as a statistic it still exists and I think it would be important to be public knowledge. Just like how many exist on your own ignore list could. It could be seen an interesting information.
